This thesis investigates motion control methods and physical human robot interaction (pHRI) control strategies for two robotic systems, namely a kinematically r

In recent years, researchers have achieved great success in guaranteeing safety in human-robot interaction, yielding a new generation of robots that can work wi

Robot manipulation is a great challenge; it encompasses versatility -adaptation to different situations-, autonomy -independent robot operation-, and dependabil

This book investigates a biologically inspired method of robot arm control, developed with the objective of synthesising human-like motion dynamically, using no
